• 2 cheats

I have 2 cheats for you!

1: this can with any character: if you're racing, hold ''R'' by a turn. if the turn is left, push your yoystick for a second to the right. do this two times, and you got a short turbo! this works also by a right turn.
2. if you play VS with 2-4 players, AND you got a long way head to the other players, stop your kart in the final lap close by the finish, spin around 180 degrees, go backward and you hear 2 finishes for you. you see then 2 points in one race! | [Sent by roykoning]

• DK Jungle Park

When you are floating in the air while jumping via the big jump, steer to the left. This will give you some effort. Don't steer to much, or you will end up swimming. When you are driving in the cave, just drive straight ahead, while avoiding the last most steep piece of road. This piece of road you will only make with a turbo. Some pieces you can shortcut through the grass, but use the turbo for this, because the grass will slow you down ofcourse.

• Extra

To access a new mode called Extra, win every cup with a gold trophy (50cc, 100cc and 150cc) and you will get a new mode under 150cc named Extra. This is where you are fast and all courses are back to front. | [Sent by HRBEK]

• Extra Cups

If you reached the golden cup in the 150 cc level of Mario Grand Prix, you will get an extra level. A new titlescreen appears and you can race all the courses mirrored.

• HUGE shortcut on wario land

At the very beginning of this track there are some small bumps, when you are heading for them veer left (or right if you are playing in extra) into the first one so you are facing straight at the wall, (this is the hard bit), when you hit the wall press the "R" button, this will jump you over the wall and you will be halfway through the coarse allready. (you have to press "R" at the exact time you hit the wall, not before or after). This can be used on the 2nd and 3rd laps aswell. | [Sent by anomymous]

• Koopa Troopa Beach

Go through the cave via the jump. Use the mushroom powerups to make it, or jump without one at the edge of the jump.

• Luigi's Ghost

If you can race Luigi Circuit below 1'52"00 in Time Trials, you can take it up against Luigi's Ghost. This ghost will be saved permanently to the game, even if you don't have a memory pack.

• Mario Ghost

If you beat Mario Raceway in Time Trials in under one minute, 30 seconds, a message will appear at the bottom of the screen. Now you'll be able to race against a mysterious Mario ghost. Let's-a go!

• Mario Raceway shortcut

Around the fourth turn on this track, you should notice a brick wall on the right. This shortcut only works if you have a mushroom. First of all, before you turn, go up the hill a little bit. Then drive toward the wall. Just before you go onto the road, hit Z. And just before you fly off the road, jump. If you timed it all right, and you drove to the right spot towards the wall, you should make the jump over the wall and shave a few seconds off of your time! Trust me, this takes time and practice, it's tuff!

• Mushroom cup cheat

At the beach level there is a lake to the left of a clif-tunnel. Drive in to the lake but only a little bit and up again and then you will notice that you are at first place. You shouldn´t drive in to something then you will become the place you were at before.

• Peach Ghost

If you manage to beat the Royal Raceway circuit in Time Trials in under two minutes, 40 seconds, the delectable little Princess Peach will challenge you to a ghostly race. She may be the least popular character, but she's fast!

• Rainbow Road

When you drive away from the start and take the steep float down, you will have to take a jump across the left fence. If you have the right angle and speed, you will land on another part of the circuit giving you way head of the other drivers. Don't forget to brake in the air or you will bounce off the road right away.

• Rainbow Road Shortcut

At the start of the race you see another part before you go down turn left and hop! and you'll probaly make it and your a quarter across the course. | [Sent by kyle]

• Shortcut

On Kalimari Desert, turn left onto the second set of train tracks that you cross. Make sure you have a SUPER STAR, or this trick will not work. When you come to the tunel, hit the trigger(z) just before you enter the tunnel. Some time after you have entered the tunnel, it should tell you that you are on the next lap! Now get back off the tracks just after the tunnel, and if you were close enough, you should be in first place!

• Shortcut in Kalamari Desert

To do this shortcut you must have either a star or golden mushroom. Enter on the second railway track and use your star or mushroom befor you enter the tunnel. You will be way ahead of everyone else. | [Sent by NikhilTarte]

• Spike Shield

On the Luigi Circuit there is a balloon. In the questionmark block that's hanging below it, there is a spike shield. In Koopa Troopa Beach there is one on the green mountaing after the big jump.

• Super Cheap Shortcut in Frappe Snowland !

This is the best shortcut ever! After you read this, you can surprise your friends with an awesome shortcut! Near the end of the track you will enter a valley of ice mountains. After that is a bridge leading to the finish. BEFORE you touch the ice ground, jump from the bridge onto the snow(sideline). Continue AROUND the finish (when you pass the finish you will be on your second lap) and swerve to the left or right depending on which side you jumped on. When you pass the "out of bounds" area, the lakitu will place you before the finish line. Go through it and you will be on your third lap! This saves about one minute of time! If you miss the jump, try again or do it again at the end of the second lap. | [Sent by NikhilTarte]

• Tiny but useful shortcut

On Mario's Raceway I think its the 6 turn facing the big pipe. theres a big turn and grass between the roads. Use a mushroom to go through the grass to get a head of your foes by one second.I do it all the time and I always come in first! | [Sent by Andrew]

• Turbo Start

When the light goes blue, press the gas instantly to make a turbo start.

• Wario Stadium

This one you will have to practice. At the first few hills, make speed and try to jump across the wall. You will now be at the half of the circuit.

• Yoshi Valley

Go to the spot in the maze where all the roads melt to one road again. Stay on the right, and make a sharp left slide across the edge when there is no fence anymore. When you perform it well, you will land on the road at the left. This is gonna be a hard one to practice.
